8:02 am
should i handle him? >> should i be tough and nasty? or should i be should i be she said, should i be tough and nasty and just say you're the worst president in history or should i be nice and calm? and let him speak? >> be tough i want to begin with shane gold mocker, national political reporter for the new york times. shane, you wrote that a notable misstep of physical stumble, a mental lapse, or a barrage of two personal insults could reverberate for months because of the unusually long period until they meet again for the second debate in september. so i mean, you're absolutely right. there's a lot riding on this yeah. >> i think that the length of time because this is the earliest debate in history, does really add to the stakes, right? these two men will not debate again until september so you're going to leave that
8:03 am
taste in the mouth of voters who watched for a really long time and, you know, you hear trump's sort of joking about it before his crowd. it's actually pretty important that the rules here are different, that there will not in fact be a crowded, there's debate, and that's something that trump has historically fed upon, right? he gets feedback in real time. his crowds, he is taking instructor oxygen from his supporters, even if it's a joke at that rally. but this is going to be a much more sterile environment. it's going to be the two of them and the two moderators in a television studio. and yes, for both men, because of this length, there's going to have a really high-stakes impact for a long time. >> yeah. i mean, what do you make of trump? we were just playing that clip a few moments ago, asking his audience which donald trump should show up at the debate, and how concerned are as handlers that it will be the former and not the latter. >> i don't think it's just his handlers. i think trump in private, his said the first debate he had with joe biden in 2020, that he was over aggressive in the reviews were pretty bad of his performance and he has taken that to heart. so i don't expect the same
8:04 am
level of interruption that he hadn't 2020 that said the dislike between these two men is palpable. >> joe biden does not like and does not respect donald trump when he was first elected as president, he started referring to him as the former guy, right hidden even want to say his name to give him validation. >> and obviously we hear from trump on a daily basis, his dislike of joe biden. and so how that animosity plays it out, if they try to hold it at the beginning, doesn't spill out over the course of 90 minutes where they're so close to each other and listening to the other person say things they just so strongly disagree with the polling shows that this rate, the race is super tight and that biden has made up a little bit of ground since donald trump's conviction up in new york, how much is this debate really going to matter when it comes to those remaining independence, those undecided that are out there so they're the debate is going to matter because it's going to be so long before they meet again. >> the flip side of that is this is just unusually early. you have months to go before the campaign in typically,
8:05 am
things that happened in june, they're not what end up mattering most in november but for both candidates, this is a chance to sort of focus voters on what they want them to think about. and for joe biden, who had pushed for this debate and who had pushed for this earlier debate. in particular, he wants voters and undecided voters to tune into what the realities of a second trump would be. and he is saying this was not going to be like the first term you might have some fond memories so the economy during trump's first term in office, a second trump term would be more radical, would be focused on retribution. and for trump, he wants to make the case that what you see right now under joe biden, and this is what polls show voters are unhappy. they're unhappy with the level of inflation, are unhappy with the economy. they're unhappy with american entanglements with bohr's abroad and his argument is you like things better under me and biden is going to say you won't like them better under him in the future yeah. >> and you were just saying a few moments ago and let's talk about that a little bit. how much joe biden really wanted this early debate? i mean, that's kind of driving this, why it's so early in the calendar yeah.
8:06 am
>> they put out a letter basically saying they would like to debate twice and make it as early as possible and trump accepted almost immediately and look for the biden team. they thought this is a when they got two debates instead of the traditional three trump hit his operation. we're so quick to jump to this. they ended up accepting just these two debates. and they've asked for more and the biden team said, no, this is what we offered and you've accepted and so you're not going to get more than that. but the biden campaign, one of the arguments they've made really since last year before trump was even officially the nominee, was once voters clue in to the realities of the choice, that there is not, in fact, an alternative to joe biden. and there will not be at an alternative to donald trump, that voters are going to begin to look at this as a choice between two candidates and they will pick joe biden, they will be afraid of the future under donald trump and polls show that a lot of voters and some of the most important voters for democrats, those less engaged constituencies that will vote democrat historically, right now, while their less engaged you're
8:07 am
inclined to not vote for biden. they're inclined did not vote at all and some of them might even vote for trump and so they wanted this earlier debate in order for voters to tune in earlier. so they have more time to sell them, both their message and advertising in the coming months to say, this is the choice, it's biden versus trump. and you have to pick one of those two yeah. >> i mean, it's been said that one of the things that they fear the most inside biden world is the sofa that people will just stay home and not vote and not get energized. and president wants to change that on thursday. shane. great, great to talk to you. thanks a lot. really appreciate it. >> thank you ahead of cnn's historic presidential debate, donald trump is pushing baseless and bizarre conspiracy theories about his opponent. >> remarkably, those include an absurd accusation that president biden will be on some kind of drugs during the showdown. let's listen right now, crooked joe's gone to a log cabin to study, prepare. >> no, he didn't do he's sleeping now because they want to get him good and strong so a
8:08 am
little before debate time, he gets a shot. >> the and that's they wanted to strengthen them up. he'll come out okay. i say he'll come out all jacked up. right. all jacked let's discuss with cnn political commentator. >> sure. michael singleton and jamal simmons i'm sure mall, let's just start with you what did you think when you heard that over the weekend? >> there was a story recently about donald trump's relationship with don king. and this just reminds me of that kind of pre-fight height. the us to get back in the old days of boxing so i don't think he means anything. the president, president trump, president biden needs to go do it. he's got to do, he's got to go back and prepare. i hope they're doing preps at the 9:00 hour, 90 minutes at a clip. so get him in game shapes, so he's ready to go the president's got a couple of things in needs to work on. first of all, highlighting the contrast. >> this is about the judgment
8:09 am
of the judgment of the two. >> candidates and one of the things we hire a president for is to make sure that they can handle a crisis. and we feel tested donald trump during the worst crisis the country is based in 100 years and he failed, he failed miserably. so i think the president highlighting that choice and then talking about what he wants to do, talking about three issues, not ten because three big policies that he cares about, not ten. and then i'd also say, you know, sometimes the president hash resting old face. lisa smile a little bit so that he can shake that off problem with down on trump because he's got resting convict base and he can't shake that off with a smile and sure, michael i mean, this jacked up business shot in the asieh business. i mean, you know, i i'm struggling here to understand what's going on. it sounds a lot like i was saying in the last hour count reminds me of some of the birther stuff people could laugh it off and say its job, but then all the surrogates are saying the same thing. so they must be handing around talking boards and it says to me a little bit that maybe this strategy of talking
8:10 am
about joe biden drifting off and wandering around and so on. was not good strategy heading into a debate. i mean, like, now they've switched from sleepy joe to jacked up joe. >> i mean, i don't want to lower expectations for the president. >> we saw the state of the union address. president did a pretty good job and a lot of the messaging coming out of republican circles were that the president was not going to do a good job. he exceeded expectations the former president cited in a recent interview, a podcast interview a week ago president or vice president binds debate against paul ryan and how well, then >> those are the two biggest issues that i think most americans are going to be watching this debate thursday night, looking for answers and solutions from both men on. yeah. >> jamal, i trump surrogates. we're on the sunday talk
8:11 am
shows. obviously, you're giving him some pretty remarkably similar device advice i should say, here's christy gnome this out autocratic governor. let's listen to what she had to say. >> it it'll be a great opportunity for president trump to talk about his policies and how his policies when he served as president of this country, were good for every single family that lived here. >> should be avoid those insults on the debate stage. >> i don't think that he has to talk about get personal it in this debate at all because he's going to have so many good things to talk about in contrast with joe biden's policies. so that's really what i think president trump is planning on focusing on jamal. >> you expect a form of precedents are focused on policy i think they're going to try it because it maddens me. you see me wiping my brow maddens me because what they're trying to do is say to us, but nothing matters about what happened during 2020, during covid, right? >> that's like saying, i live in a great neighborhood except for the time they broke at my house and stole everything
8:12 am
helped me hostage. right. other than that, if we forget about that, then it was a great as a great safe neighborhood. so listen, the reality of, the trump presidency is four years ago, he knew covid was going to be a problem and didn't tell us because of politics. he didn't have briefings of the public with three months without the politics, he slowed down some of the regulations that we needed to get this done because of politics the comes to making the choice where whether or not the american people should come first or his own personal politics, he chooses himself every time. and i think those are the policies that we'd have to stay focused on. and then he got rid of abortion and then he got convicted at 34 counts. this is not somebody who's would be sitting in the white house making decisions for my family or for yours? >> and sure. mica, go ahead i was going to say everything. >> i just heard from my dear brother jamal was all about the past. i did not hear anything about a future from president biden because reality is i don't think president biden has a very sound argument to make to the american people may as consumer price index showcase it's that prices are rising higher than have ever
8:13 am
risen in generations. gems 68 a whopping 68% of americans believed that the condition of the economic, of the economy of this country is not doing great 54% trust donald trump more than president biden to handle the economy because gas is going up, electricity is going up food is going up. >> they're just a patient has been ticking. it has been ticking down. the prices are still rising, jim, and just to mention the ways in february, february, why do you manage them all in february of this year? >> okay, great. when treasury attempted to sell treasury notes, which is how we pay for a lot of this ridiculous debt we have in this country. >> we had a difficult time trying to find buyers of those notes. now for the general public, they may not understand what that means, but in order to continue ran up the gym more than buying them. but the debt is still increasing under the president administrative president's administration, and he's not doing a good job tackling that. and the american people are filling it, which is why the data indicates they don't trust his ability to continue to move the country forward in the right direction on the economic front jamal at your way in which no code just
8:14 am
for the record crime is going down. jobs are going up. inflation is going down, wages are going up. wages are rising higher than in place. sure. we need to get prices down, but let's not sort of wipe away the fact that the biden the economy is one that is much stronger than the one he inherited when donald trump really screwed up on covid. >> crime is going down. i agree with jamaal. i'm not going to deny facts here, but the reality is, despite that wages are increasing slightly, they are not increasing enough to supersede what inflationary rates are. and that's why most americans materially do not feel that they're economically better. that's just a reality all right. >> wages are going up 4.1%. flat prices are going up three plus percent surpassed inflation though that's why most americans don't fill it. >> the data speaks for itself the data does speak for itself. 4.1% wage growth and three three-point, whatever it is, 3.3% price growth. wages are going up faster than prices. >> and if joe biden makes that argument thursday night that is
8:15 am
not been in touch with what most americans say they are all right guys. well, i suspect that's gonna come up on thursday night, will be listening and sure. michael and jamaal thank you very much. we're just three days away from the first presidential debate of the year hosted by cnn. don't mess president joe biden for president down from going head-to-head on thursday, june 20, 27th at 9:00 p.m. eastern right here on cnn just in a cnn, the supreme court has just agree to hear a case that challenges one states transgender hair band for miners will discuss the nationwide implications coming up and today marks exactly two years since the supreme court made a critical ruling overturning roe versus wade. and to mark the occasion using the biden campaign is hosting 50 events to underscore the impact that ruling has had on abortion rights. they will the most anticipated moment of this election and the stakes couldn't be higher. the president and the former president, one stage two, very different visions for america's future that cnn presidential debates thursday

8:21 am
country. >> let me just tell you what tennessee prohibits as of last year when a pass this law prohibits all medical treatments intended to allow a minor to identify with or live as a purported identity inconsistent with the minor sex or to treat purported discomfort or distress from a discordance between the minor sex and asserted identity and you know, what it would involve his stopping any kind of hormone treatment, puberty blockers and it's the biden administration that appealed after losing in a mid midwest court of appeal pl saying, look, this violates the cost constitution's guarantee of equality, because what it does is it classifies people based on their sex and transgender status. so this case involves justice, tenancy law, but it will have reverberations for all of these laws across the country. junk huge reverberations. and today marks the second interval first, we of roe versus wade being overturned. speaking of big
8:22 am
implications and the supreme court is expected to rule on another case that deals with these medical emergency exceptions to abortion bans as the idaho case. exactly right. >> what impact we see that will be that's the major second chapter in after the dobbs ruling two years ago, think of how much things have changed in america more than 14 states have banned several others have severe restrictions on that limit. >> a woman's access to abortion. people, or even having new debates about in vitro fertilization. the dobbs decision is really altered. the terms of debate for the campaigns underway. and this case that it's going to come down perhaps as early as wednesday, which is the next day that the justices will take the bench test. an idaho banned one of the 14 or so states that immediately outlawed abortion idaho's law says that it criminalizes the active abortion on the part of physician or anyone who would help assist in an abortion.
8:23 am
except when it's necessary to prevent the death of the woman meanwhile, a federal law that mandates emergency treatment in hospitals nationwide that except me medicare funds, which is majority of hospital emergency rooms that federal law that dates to 1986 says that anyone who comes in for emergency treatment has to be stabilized in some way and with the biden administration is saying, is that that would apply to a woman who comes in with complications from a pregnancy and might mean in an abortion jen not to prevent her death, but rather to preserve her reproductive health or any other kind of health. and that's a clash between those two laws. and as i said, by wednesday, we will know if the biden administration might prevail and have this federal law preempt state bans in these very serious emergency situations and joe were still waiting on the trump immunity case. >> we is should we say okay, should we bank on it? we're going to get it this week or is
8:24 am
it possible that it could drift? >> you and i we would love it this way. we would love if i friday the justices would even love it by friday because they don't like to go into july. but there is a chance that they might slop over into monday, july 1, but i think that you can consider it possibly on friday and fingers crossed. it doesn't go to monday, but i do think that's the possibility because jim, they're like us deadlines are hard yeah. for all of us, no question about it. but thursday $1 day of the debate, i mean, you would have to think that they of course, they knew that the base good. okay. all right there. nothing attention. the question is, do first of all, a is it done? >> is the ruling done? because that's a pretty big question, right? and of itself. but then if it's done, do they want to release it on thursday the day of the debate? and will they look like they're trying to set some terms for the debate? i think that's a pretty tricky proposition inside and maybe one of the justices will say, you know, i'm still messing around with a couple of footnotes. i want to go friday.
8:25 am
>> okay. alright. so they might have a little justice it's courtesy there. yeah. >> if that happens or jumped as cubic as always. thanks for your expertise. we really appreciate it right now. lawyers for donald trump are back in a florida courtroom for not one, but two hearings today in his classified documents, case the judge cannon agreed a gag the former president were live outside the courthouse next the final episode of violence there, deadly by lynch and aliche masters fluctuate hurricane impacts are worsening. >> is it too late to undo decades of climate change? violin would we have schreiber sunday at nine on cnn when you're the leader in disaster clean up and restoration how do you make like an never even happened? all right? whatever

8:30 am
gag order this time in his classified documents case that request from prosecutors is one issue, judge, aileen cannon is hearing today in two back-to-back hearings south florida, cnn's evan perez is outside the court for us. evan, where do things stand well, jim weird, but to finish up the first half of the day right now, the judges hearing arguments over the funding of jack smith, the special counsel, and whether that meet legal requirements to trump team says no. >> and of course, the prosecution is pushing back on that, but the big hearing this afternoon is the where we expect a lot more a more fiery set of arguments, certainly the special counsel is arguing that donald trump should be put under new restrictions as part of his release. for these charges that he's cases here in the southern district of florida. they say that he should have a gag order and that it should be put into the terms of his probation release from the probation office, and that's what the former president is pushing back on. they say that this is an attack
8:31 am
on his first amendment rights. and of course, bringing up the fact that he is not only not only campaigning, but going on a debate stage later this week, the former president is betting on the cnn debate against joe biden the special counsel cited a number of things in their arguments, though they pointed out that shortly after the mar-a-lago search back in 2022 an armed man attacked an fbi field office in cincinnati, and then i said more recently, another trump supporter, they said made threats against the fbi, threatening to slaughter their families, hunting them down. and they said that while the former president acknowledges the impact of his words on his supporters he takes always no responsibility for the impact of that rhetoric, which of course, you know, jim, he has been doing a lot of lately absolutely. >> and based on what we know about judge aileen cannon and the way she has been ruling so far, how likely is it for her to give to hand down a gag order in this oh, i think i
8:32 am
think the odds are against it because in part she has given the former president a lot of deference, pointing out, not only the fact that he served as president, but also is a presidential candidate is the leading candidate obviously for the republicans are expected nominee for the republican party. >> so look, she is been very slow in making rulings. and so that one after the after the gag order filed hearing this afternoon, we expect that she's going to take a few days before we actually hear from her. and we don't anticipate that the special counsel will so get certainly all of or even most of what they want from her alright. >> evan perez live in florida, force, evan, thanks so much. and were now just three days away from cnn's primetime presidential debate between president biden, former president donald trump thursday showdown will be the earliest presidential debate in modern history, maybe in all of us history the stakes are undeniably high. much of the national polling shows they're locked in a race that is too close to call. so how are the campaign's spending these
8:33 am
final days before the debate, drawing out our cnn's alayna treene and kevin lip tack. and kevin, you have some new reporting on how the president is it is preparing for trump. he's preparing for all versions of trump, not just the one we see out on the campaign because that's the thing with trump. >> you never know when you get on the debate stage, which version of trump you're going to get? >> is it the pupil lipstick interrupting, yelling donald trump or is it a more restrained, more presidential version of the candidate that you're going to get. and what we've been hearing from biden advisers is that they're preparing for both president biden's up at camp david. he's going to eventually do these mock debates. and they basically want to be ready for whatever trump shows up at the debate stage. so today is day for president biden has been up there for awhile already. we don't actually expect to see him before he shows up in atlanta on thursday. i don't think it's any secret why the biden campaign is preparing so intensively for this debate, they think the stakes are very high, but they're also aware that they can't afford an underwhelming performance. they
8:34 am
know that any kind of mental slip, verbal slip is only going to be amplified underneath if those lights on the debate stage, and that is why i think they've, they're putting so much work into this preparation and we did get an insight in this memo that we've got over the weekend into the three points that president biden is going to want to emphasize. one is abortion, and this has been the most galvanizing issue you for democrats throughout the selection and they do really want to lay the overturning of roe versus wade, write it donald trump's feet yeah, there's the issue of democracy and protecting democracy. that's obviously been the underpinning of the biden campaign so far. so certainly biden's going to hammer away at that. then the third is the economy, which in a way is the most risky one for president biden. he is vulnerable on this issue, despite the economy doing pretty well, a lot of whom americans say that they just aren't feeling it in his strategy is going to week to try and make the point that trump's economic plans would only benefit the rich. so you can bet that out there at camp david, president biden is hammering away, trying to sharpen his points specifically
8:35 am
on these three issues, but certainly in anticipation of what he's going to face on the debate stage. >> yeah. and you have to expect that trump is gonna go after biden on the economy. we see, i mean, we play the trump clips all the time, but he is doing that quite a bit out on the campaign. real and elana take us into how trump is preparing are not really preparing being out on the campaign trail and giving speeches instead, well, that's what his team is trying to portray, that he's doing. they're trying to argue that he does not need as much preparation as joe biden. however, what i found really fascinating about the last week or so is we've really seen donald trump's team. sure, they're doing what they're calling policy discussions behind the scenes. but it's essentially debate prep with donald trump, but won't include mock debates. but he is working through with vp contender senators, former administration officials how to sharpen his language on certain rhetoric, including all of the points that kevin laid out about talking about the economy and abortion and american democracy. however, what they've really been focusing on the last couple of days is
8:36 am
managing expectations. and this is something that is a bit hypocritical because right now we're seeing a lot of donald trump surrogates and his advisers go on the airwaves saying a couple of things on that they think trying to take it out on cnn and refs and saying mainstream media setting the expectations too low. but also, we know that for months now, donald trump and his team of argued that joe biden is essentially senile. they're acting like or they've said that he struggles with mental and physical acuity. they've tried to zero point out that maybe he can't even stand on stage for 90 minutes. now, they were trying to change the narrative. they're trying to argue that joe biden is a worthy debater, exact words donald trump used in a podcast interview last week, we're seeing others say that he's potentially taking performance enhancing drugs, things that have are baseless accusations. all of these things are i think setting in because there is some a little bit more panic. i think going on in trump world about joe biden having a week
8:37 am
week-long boot camp to prepare for this. and so they are trying to manage expectations and raise a bar that they initially themselves had said very hello yeah, i mean, kevin, are they at all addressing this jacked up that we've gone from sleepy joe to jacked up joe. i mean, i don't think they're going to dignify that kind of rhetoric with a response necessarily, but certainly, i think that they are aware that biden has had really good performances. and i think if the state of the union, but he's also had milder, quieter performances on an everyday basis at some of his policy stopped. so there are two joe biden's that we have seen over the of course of the last several months. they are very much hoping that this is the state of the union. joe biden, who is energetic, but certainly there's no evidence. and i don't think the white s is going to dignify the allegations that he is going to be drugged up on the debates pitch with a respond. >> all right. very good. elina, kevin, guys, thank you very much. just a reminder. we are just three days away from the first presidential debate of
